NSC Sunday Poker - PokerStars or Full Tilt Poker

[matt]

Hey all,

FTP comes back online this week, which should provide an opportunity to return to the old platform if people would prefer to do this.

Pros of FTP:
- easier for new players to join in (no need for approval)
- better interface (a matter of opinion)

Pros of Stars:
- automated league tables
- has been very reliable (very little downtime)

I think they are both owned by the same company now, so for those of you with ethics there is no easy choice.

Choose your poison.

Personally, I preferred full tilt. Not a huge fan of the pokerstars interface.

 

[R. Slicker]

Full tilt, here.

You can log into your FTP as of last week but real money activates from Tuesday.

You can transfer money between FTP / Pokerstars though.

I won't vote as I hardly play. Would love to do so but Sunday nights are my busiest with poker so no real opportunity. PokerStars have bought FTP so I'd assume reliability/functionality will be the same across both

If you have not voted, would you please?

Full tilt.

Not fussed to be honest i will still play (badly) either way

 

[doogie004]

Poker stars for me but will go with the majority

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

I prefared Full Tilt.
But I am used to Poker Stars now so not fussed.
Not worried about league table to be honest, only Blue and Doogie seem worried about who is top.
We seemed to get more players when it was Full Tilt.
Will Bozza still get money for NSC as per the old days if we play on F/T?

i dont mind i hardly ever play but i prefer full tilt

 

[Taybha]

I feel the pre flop turnaround easy outs are much more complicated on full tilt yet the ability to double bluff the river on the post folding limpers outlines the true value of a overstacked blind bet on the turn , so with that in mind i quite like pokerstars .

So thats where i'm going wrong

I stopped playing when in went to poker stars so have voted FT and will try to get online again if you switch back.

I had about £50 in my FT account when it went down. Will I ever see that again?

same as me. Never managed to get on with Stars so FT for me also.

And yes, I've had a an email from FT stating that the £26 i had in there, is still there.

That's good news. I've not had an e-mail but hopefully the balance will be there when I log on (which I can't do from work pc).

 

[Max Paper]

Don't mind but voted for full tilt to encourage new players

I am the same. Logged on to FT yesterday for the first time since it was shut down, my dough was still in there but I can't withdraw it 'til tomorrow.

 

[matt]

OK, so it seems that FTP is going to be the winner.
[MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] not sure if you will want to set-up the same way as before (assuming that will be possible) so you get commission? If so, then we should probably move to Tilt as soon as it is set-up.

I'm not around this Sunday, so good luck all
